Powerful AV Decoding in a convenient Wallplate form-factor DuetD5-WP 4K60 4:4:4 Wallplate AV-over-IP Decoder with HDMI Output and USB-over-IP Connectivity

DuetD5-WP • Duet Wallplate Decoder

Overview

Visionary proudly introduces the DuetD5-WP 4K60 4:4:4 Wallplate AV-over-IP Decoder, the company’s first wallplate decoder, extending the 5-Series platform into a sleek and space-efficient in-wall design. Building on Visionary’s award-winning PacketAV® technology, the DuetD5-WP delivers the same powerful decoding and control capabilities found in Visionary’s full-size endpoints, now in a refined form factor for discreet integration.

The DuetD5-WP provides 4K60 4:4:4 ultra-low-latency video decoding and Dante®/AES67 audio over a single Gigabit Ethernet port, ensuring accurate color reproduction and smooth motion performance. Its HDMI output delivers pristine video to connected displays, while dual USB-C ports support USB-over-IP connectivity for peripherals such as cameras, microphones, and control devices.

This USB functionality enables bi-directional communication with encoders like the DuetE5-WP-C and DuetE5-WP-C-BT, allowing devices connected to the decoder to be accessed by a host computer at the encoder location – creating seamless USB-over-IP and KVM extension paths across the network. Integrated VLAN tagging and Dante®/AES67 support provide efficient traffic management and compatibility across enterprise network architectures.

The DuetD5-WP is powered entirely by standard PoE and requires only one network connection. Its angled 45-degree Ethernet connector ensures proper CAT5/6 bend-radius compliance within electrical boxes, minimizing cable strain
and simplifying installation in constrained spaces.

Fully compatible with Visionary’s PacketAV® 5-series ecosystem, the DuetD5-WP can operate on any industry-standard IP network – either integrated with enterprise data infrastructure or deployed on a dedicated AV network.

As Visionary’s first decoding wallplate, the DuetD5-WP delivers powerful video, audio, and USB-over-IP functionality in an elegant form factor – perfect for any installation demanding high performance, flexibility, and reliability in networked AV.

Dynamically Optimized (Adaptive) bit-rate compression CODEC w/ built-in AI
  • Visionary’s highly efficient video compression codec is a modified full frame encoding that dynamically optimizes for fine lines (computer generated graphics) or motion video by using sophisticated AI to analyze the input source content. Actively matching the level of compression to a scene by leveraging periods of low motion video content reduces the stream’s size and enhances performance – enabling, without compromising image quality, Visually Lossless transmission of computer generated graphics or full-motion video sources.
  • Adjustable Video Bitrate: (50 – 200 Mbps or Auto [800Mbps max])
Enterprise Level Security –AES Encryption, 802.1x, HTTPS, SSH
Enterprise applications demand a secure Network AV solution
  • AES Stream Encryption – The Advanced Encryption Standard, or AES, is a worldwide standard and was adopted as the standard encryption algorithm by the U.S. government for encrypting classified information
  • HTTPS Secure API – Using secure SSL/TLS communications HTTPS provides integrity that a client is communicating with the real API and receiving back authentic data. It also ensures privacy for applications and users using the API
  • 802.1x Authentication for Network access control – 802.1X provides a secure authentication mechanism for any device trying to access a network
  • SSH Network Protocol – SSH is a network protocol used to remotely access and manage a device through command line communications. The key difference between Telnet (used by other AV over IP manufacturers) and SSH is that SSH uses encryption, which means that all data transmitted over a network is secure
